Hey kim,
I love playing with the template! I know that it is PU, but would it be allowed to give the pumpkins away on my blog? do you have TOU somewhere? And if I can't share them on my blog, could I give them to all the girls that play along here?

Here are my pumpkins! get them on my blog if you want them, there's also a tutorial on virtual pumpkin carving.

Kimberkatt - would it be OK to post the tutorial here in this forum? I just had so much fun with this...

Hey now... that's not a bad idea! I just need to go hone my skills a little! lol I used to LOVE doing paper piecing, either freehand or following templates... I actually still have a few that I did and I was thinking of scanning and converting to templates for my own personal use... but, if you guys want them, then I'll certainly share! :D

LOL! Well... since I can't do people, that leaves the pilgrims out! Turkey's I can do!!! :DD :DD :DD

And, I'm hoping to have some kind of Recipe Exchange going on in November, also! Sherah has these AWESOME recipe card templates (http://www.stoneaccentsstudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13_21&products_id=2159) that I picked up last year that I'm DYING to use!!! I just need some motivation...uh...incentive...uh, I mean, Inspiration!! lol :l
